Architecture for Blockchain Applications

Abstract

AgriDigital is an Australian-based company, which provides a platform and community approach to digitizing agriculture. Since being founded in 2015, AgriDigital has been using blockchain technology as part of their technical stack to build digital trust across agriculture supply chains. This chapter briefly introduces AgriDigital’s blockchain solution and several pilots and proof of concepts. We then discuss more of the technical details of a pilot system used to transfer title of a grain asset for payment and for supply chain provenance and traceability of organic oats. This discussion covers requirements, architectural design decisions, and outcomes.
